I hope everyone is having a happy holiday season, and for those that are having tough times, I’m hoping 2009 rings in better things for you and yours…

I’ve decided to share today’s personal experience….

Today was a great day, not just because it was a holiday or that I had the day off, but because my husband and I had the privelage of making a difference in the lives of some local needy families.

Wednesday afternoon I let my boss know I was going to be dedicating the day to community service at a shelter, he asked if I wanted to take some toys his 3 kids had wanted to donate. I jumped at the opportunity and said, “of course, thanks”. To make a long story short, he dropped them off and I got wrapping! We made the visit to the families and handed out all the gifts! Seeing those little faces light up along with the gratitude and happiness of the parents was the best thing in the world, and to top it off something amazing happened while walking back to the car. There was a full fledged giant arched rainbow that appeared as if it were on a timer! I have never seen a full rainbow so beautiful and up close, it was as if God was smiling on us and letting us know better times were ahead both for us and those families in 2009 and beyond.
